The Get British Accent app has not opened to the public yet. This site describes how practice in the app works.
Spending more time keeping track than teaching?
Availability in one place, homework somewhere else, feedback buried in messages. Keep your profile, sessions, students and written feedback in one workspace, so you can keep track of the work around your teaching. Workspaces are reviewed before learners can find them.

Submit for approval
A platform administrator reviews the workspace. Until it is approved, learners cannot find or book you.
Review and approval.
A platform administrator reviews each application. While it is pending you can keep editing your profile and hours, and the decision, with any note from the reviewer, appears on your workspace’s Profile and approval page. If it is not approved, you can change your application and submit it again.
Approval is not a certificate or an accreditation.
Help learners understand how you teach.
Learners see your name, headline, bio, specialities, the languages you teach in, your hourly rate and your session length of 30, 45, 60 or 90 minutes. You decide whether your profile is listed in Find a coach and whether you are taking new students; coaches who are not listed stay visible to the students they already have.
Stop translating your availability across time zones.
Publish weekly hours in your own time zone and add time off when you are away. Learners can request a session only at the times you publish, at least 12 hours ahead and up to three weeks ahead, and they see those times in their own time zone.
Keep session requests out of scattered messages.
Each request shows the time the learner chose and any note they added, and you accept or decline it, with an optional reason they can read. Sessions take place on the video tool you already use: you add an https meeting link to the booking, and the learner sees it once the session is confirmed. Either side can cancel before a session starts.
Payments are not switched on in the app yet, so sessions with learners who find you here cannot be confirmed for now.
The app has not opened to the public yet.
Prepare for the learner, with the information they share.
While you coach someone, your workspace sees their profile, including their first language, goals and weekly practice target, and the homework they hand in to you. Their course progress and their recordings are two separate choices the learner makes, and they can switch either off at any time. Everything a student shares is visible to everyone in your workspace, not only to you.
Recording is not switched on in the app yet, so answers and hand-ins are written for now.
Give the next session something to build on.
Set homework with instructions, a text to read, an optional link to a published lesson and an optional due date. Your homework list shows what is waiting for review, and you give written feedback on each hand-in before marking it reviewed. Your notes on a student stay private to your workspace: the student cannot read them, and neither can platform administrators.
Teaching together? Keep the work in one workspace.
Invite colleagues to your workspace as members or admins. Members coach their own students and sessions; owners and admins also manage profiles, the application and earnings. Approval covers the whole workspace, so colleagues you add later are not reviewed again, and you are responsible for them.
Accepting an invitation needs a verified email address, and the app does not send email yet, so invitations cannot be accepted for now.
Know the terms before you offer a session.
You set your own hourly rate within the range the platform allows, and a session costs that rate for its length. On sessions with learners who find you here, the platform keeps a commission; the app shows the current terms when you apply, and each booking keeps the terms that applied when it was made. Sessions with students you bring yourself are paid outside the platform, and no commission is taken.
The platform does not promise students, bookings or income.
Payments are not switched on in the app yet, so sessions with learners who find you here cannot be paid for or confirmed for now.
Questions coaches ask.
Does approval mean the platform has certified me?
No. A platform administrator reviews your workspace application and approves it or returns it with a note. Approval is not a certificate or an accreditation, so describe your experience and training accurately in your bio.
Who can find my profile?
Learners signed in to the app can browse listed coaches from approved workspaces and the times they publish. Learners decide whom to request; the platform does not rank or promote coaches.
Can I bring students I already teach?
Yes. You invite them to your workspace by email, they accept with that address and choose what to share with you, and you add their sessions to your diary. You arrange payment with them yourself, outside the platform, and no commission is taken.
Accepting an invitation needs a verified email address, and the app does not send email yet, so invitations cannot be accepted for now.
Does the app score my students’ pronunciation?
No. The app does not score pronunciation automatically. The feedback your students receive is the feedback you write.
Where do sessions take place?
On the video tool you already use. You add an https meeting link to each accepted booking, and the learner sees it with the booking once the session is confirmed.
How are payouts made?
The app does not make payouts automatically. Your workspace’s earnings page shows what is owed to you from sessions paid through the platform and every payout recorded against it.
Payments are not switched on in the app yet, so no session can be paid through the platform for now.
Keep your attention on the conversation you are helping someone have.
Set up your workspace, complete your profile and submit it for review. You decide whom you coach, when you are available and what you charge within the platform’s range.
